Boogie Nights (1997) is a movie I recently watched on HBOMAX. The storyline follows a young man who hasn't lived up to his parents expectations but has found a way to make a living and get rich in a way they definitely wouldn't approve - porn. He quickly becomes famous due to his long member. Life in the 70s as a porn star contains many unique highlights but also many potential pitfalls. This movie is directed by Paul Thomas Anderson (There Will be Blood) and stars Mark Wahlberg (The Departed), Luis Guzmán (Traffic), Burt Reynolds (Smokey and the Bandit), Julianne Moore (Magnolia), Don Cheadle (Crash) and Heather Graham (Austin Powers). The storyline for this is so unique and well told. The depiction of the 70s was excellent as was the soundtrack. The acting is outstanding and the writing and dialogue was perfect as was Damon as the main character. The circumstances are hilarious and the end is perfection based on the storyline. Overall this is an underrated masterpiece that is a must see and an easy 10/10 that I'd strongly recommend.
